According to manager, spices all contain gluten. Not capability to not cross contaminate. Only option was plain grilled chicken breast.

Used to eat here for years, dozens and dozens of times, with friends. After discovering the reason for my health issues was gluten, I cut it out. That eliminated this restaurant entirely.

This restaurant chain is not gluten free friendly. I haven't been back in 6 or 7 years because of it.

And guess what? When I'm out with friends, that means none of them eat here anymore either. -->One of these days these restaurants will learn that if ONE person in a group cannot eat gluten, the entire group will not go to your restaurant; we aren't splitting up for dinner.

Enjoy your restricted market, Chuys.

Chips are fried in same oil as sopapias, corn and flour tortias are cooked on same utensils. Meats are all marinated in sauce with a rue. Salad only safe option.

The food here is good BUT this is NOT a safe gluten restaurant. Manager told us there is virtually nothing on the menu that is gluten free except the Mexi Cobb salad without dressing. Corn tortillas are made in the same place as flour tortillas. Creamy jalapeño and most other sauces are not gluten free. Ate at this restaurant for ten years before celiac diagnosis.

Tortilla Chips are fresh and fried in their own fryer, the creamy jalapeño and salsa fresca are great. Huge gluten free options right off the menu, no need to make alterations! We eat here often and I have never gotten sick!

I had a great experience at Chuy’s with their awareness to Celiac disease and their ability to make sure everything was safe for me to eat. The General Manager, Bentley, was awesome and I would highly recommend requesting him to talk to when you go in!!

Called ahead and discussed gf options Was offered a gf menu at host stand. No meat sub guacamole. There aren’t many options to choose from which is why they get a low rating. Service great, atmosphere great. I had to go for food after

Separate GF menu. I had enchiladas on corn tortillas with one of the safe sauces plus a crunchy taco. It was delicious and staff was knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience at Chuy’s. The manager and majority of the staff were very knowledgeable on what items are gluten free items! Their chips are made in a dedicated fryer. And corn tortillas are gluten free. Staff was so kind to let me know all the gluten free sauces that were options. Their fajita meat is not gluten free. I had the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom enchiladas and they were delicious. No cross contamination and I feel great after my meal. I’m making Chuy’s my permanent Mexican food spot in OKC!
